INDIANAPOLIS – Not everyone got what he wanted from Santa. But
during the final SmackDown of 2011, some Superstars did indeed have their
holiday wishes come true. Wade Barrett finally earned retribution on Randy
Orton, taking him out of commission in a brutal Falls Count Anywhere Match. Booker
T got a title match with Intercontinental Champion Cody Rhodes. And, Big Show
received a title match with World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan.

Wade Barrett battled Randy
Orton in a Falls Count Anywhere Match (WATCH | PHOTOS)
Wade Barrett and Randy Orton continued their intense rivalry in a brutal Falls
Count Anywhere Match. After waging war inside the ring, the action spilled outside,
where The Viper tossed Barrett over the announce table. As Orton continued
to pummel Barrett, he was shoved directly into the WWE ref, knocking him out
cold. Next, the two continued to fight it out among the WWE Universe.

The vicious battle then carried over into the locker room area
of the Conseco Fieldhouse, where there was no WWE official present. The battle
even waged on inside an elevator! But when their fight took them to the top of
a staircase, it was Orton who ended up at the bottom. At first Barrett started
down the stairs to approach Orton, but then backed away and exited through an
arena door as The Viper laid motionless on the stair landing. When will WWE’s Apex
Predator return to action? (MORE ON ORTON’S CONDITION)

including defeating Rey Mysterio at WrestleMania and bringing “honor and
prestige” back to Intercontinental Title. As Rhodes disparaged Booker – calling him a
washed up announcer – his older brother, Dustin, came out to speak in
Booker’s defense.

Dustin – whose alter ego is Goldust – said that when he was
down and out, Booker took him under his wing and inspired him. But Cody didn’t
want to hear any of it. Booker backed up his defender, saying he was more of
man than Cody would ever be. Next, Booker said he wanted to face Cody for his
Intercontinental Title. After Rhodes agreed to face Booker next week on
SmackDown, he blasted his own brother with a cheap shot kick to the groin and a
leaping kick to the face from the second rope.
